stand-up scene, co-founder and booker/MC of English Moscow Comedy, with

festivals of 2019, including Maribor Lent Festival, Sziget Festival and, of
course, Edinburgh Fringe 2019. He was going to expand his tour “Bad
Russian” to Asia, planning to leave comfortable Europe alongside
unpredictable Motherland and make people laugh in the warm and cozy Pacific
area. Before Covid, of course.
Past two years Denis has spent in Russia preparing for an inv..another
tour! Performing, acting, doing workshops for public speakers all over the
country and opening his own “Laboratory of Humour” where he with his
